aws-cli

[Eddie Seelke]

I am trying to get aws-cli running on my unRAID server so I can use it with user-scripts. I have un-get installed and was able to install aws-cli using it. It seems it does not handle dependencies, so I am going through until I find them all. I already had python installed. So far, I have installed the following packages.

un-get install aws-cli python-botocore python-jmespath python-dateutil python-six python-urllib3 colorama python-docutils python-PyYAML python-s3transfer rsa pyasn1

 

Now I am getting the following error when trying to run the aws command.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/aws", line 27, in <module>
    sys.exit(main())
  File "/usr/bin/aws", line 23, in main

I'm not sure where to go from here and was hoping someone here may be able to help.

Are you still having troubles with this? I got the AWS CLI working by installing it via docker, mounting a drive from the NAS that has the .config and .credentials files so I could then use it with multiple profiles. I wanted an easy way of running it to perform some off-prem backups to S3 so I then use the User Scripts plugin to create a bash script that installed it via docker and then ran the commands I need.

I put together a simple GIST using an example of listing the S3 bucket: https://gist.github.com/StevenMapes/f7a9959f9bac076219421664fa4165f3

 

Obviously that doesn't cover setting up the IAMs but it's the cleanest way I've found of using the AWS CLI with Unraid
